| | Featured Products | Meyer Sound MJF-208 Monitor
The self-powered MJF-208 stage monitor from Meyer Sound ($N/A) incorporates the performance and reliability of the company's MJF-212A and the MJF-210 monitors into a smaller, lightweight package. Each MJF-208 measures less than 13 inches high and weighs 45 pounds.

Portability and ease of use for the MJF-208 are enhanced by the convenient and reliable MDM-832 distribution module, which can route up to eight channels of AC power, balanced audio, and RMS monitoring data to multiple stage monitors.
